Clinton: You can sit with me at my next fundraisers for $353k
Hot Air ^ | March 26, 2016 | MATT VESPA

It will cost more than four times the average income in San Francisco to eat dinner next to Hillary Clinton and the Clooneys there next month.

For two seats at the head table with Clinton, George Clooney and his wife, attorney Amal Clooney, at an April 15 fundraiser, a couple must contribute or raise a whopping $353,400 — a huge ticket price for a hard-dollar fundraiser.

The Bay Area fundraiser, hosted at the home of venture capitalist Shervin Pishevar, is one of two events starring the Clooneys. On April 16, Clinton and the Clooneys will reunite at the Clooney Los Angeles mansion, where tickets cost $33,400 per person to dine at the table next to one of Hollywood’s most glamorous couple.

Both events raise money for the Hillary Victory Fund. While the maximum donation to a presidential campaign is $2,700 for the primary elections (plus another $2,700 for the general), the Hillary Victory Fund can accept much larger contributions because it is a so-called joint fundraising committee that is comprised of multiple committees.

President Obama attended a fundraising event in the Bay Area in February, where he mentioned income inequality to a small crowd of uber-wealthy liberal donors at the home of former eBay executive Steve Westly. The president was discussing the rising tide of populism seen this cycle, though the fundraiser was also $33,400 per ticket. They’re the party of the people, all right–rich people.

Maybe that’s what these fund raisers are really for? She’s saving up bail money

God forgive me, but I wouldn’t mind seeing Clooney get Alzheimer’s after his Charlton Heston comment years back.

Said he later apologized to the wife. I don’t believe him.

I avoid evil people.

Remember the guy and his wife who got stuck in the elevator with the beast during impeachment? He said the aura of being with evil was horrible - or something to that effect.

Maybe a crowd funded ticket for Glenn Beck (with his favorite, ahem, utensil) to sit next to her.

From a 2008 FR thread...

In receiving a special filmmaking achievement award from the National Board of Reviews, actor George Clooney joked that “Charlton Heston announced again today that he is suffering from Alzheimer’s.”

Clooney still had a chance to apologize for the bad humor day. When questioned about the remark by New York Newsday, Clooney sputtered: “I don’t care. Charlton Heston is the head of the National Rifle Association. He deserves whatever anyone says about him.”

Clooney is a true fungus of an alleged human.

Problem is that’s $353,400 too much.

If I am ever unfortunate enough to even just be in the same room with her I’d probably become physically ill.
